Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Romantic Twilight
Romantic Twilight is our pick at Yarmouth, and she heads the field on our ratings at 71, six pounds better than Astronomica on 65, which is a worthwhile edge in a modest Class 6 contest over a mile. The danger comes from Astronomica, with Merapi (64) and Diamond Ali (63) also close enough to take advantage if she fails to run to her best. The testing good to soft ground adds some uncertainty, but the strongest case on the figures still belongs to Romantic Twilight, who is the selection.
